Anything Unrelated
Yes, you heard it, or read it, Blizzard just released a new patch for StarCraft, making some few changes and fixes, and releasing it completely free for anyone who wants to download it and play it.
Here’s the official post from Blizzard.
Now go, play it.
Ok, I really enjoy Fallout Shelter, specially now that I discovered a little trick: changing the clock.
Let me explain this: while playing the game, move the clock of your computer, or even the day, to a future one. Just follow these steps.
NOTE: This works while playing the game online or offline.
1. Make sure to know which day of the week is noted on the Daily Report (this way you can always get lunchboxes). And also remember the day of your computer and time... just in case you go to far and forget it.
2. Change the date (or hour) a little back to a few days or hours. Just enough to fit the time you’re looking for: days for daily report, hours for quests or exploring.
3. Now return it to the time it was.
4. Wait a couple of seconds, this happens as soon as you hit “Change”.
5. Done.
Today I came from work, sat on my PC and found out that Fallout Shelter was now being released on PC. I’m downloading it right now.
To download it, you need the Bethesda Launcher, get it here.
Now we only need a way to download more hours for the day.
Remember this?
Yup, that’s my desktop, and that’s the old Desktop Destroyer that was used when Windows 98 was still popular. Really, it is, and it works perfectly.
Yes, it may turn your desktop into a 16 bits mess (is that 16 bits?), but still is a great time waster, popular, and perfect for children since they won’t break anything.
Today, besides watching the ending of TLoK, another awesome thing happened: I got into HotS!
I love Borderlands, I love the trailers, the lore, the intros, the fighting, the gameplay, the dialogues, every single thing of these games. And what do we have here? Yep, a new trailer for Borderlands: TPS, featuring an awesome music and a lot of... a lot of Borderlands.
LoLBuilder is a simple web tool that shows the most common builds for champions based on diamond and challenger ranked games and gives you advices considering usual picks, best items, runes, masteries, and more.
There is also a Windows App that analyze that will help you with your build as soon as the game start. What it does is write new items set into the game data folder and allows you to use these from within the game. Although is an awesome tool and can be used by beginners and pros, I’ve always recommended that is better to learn how to play on your own and not rely on 3rd party tools that make the game easier, simpler, or less interactive.
Do not sacrifice difficulty over entertainment.
I’ve stopped playing League of Legends a few weeks ago (I’m playing WoW again and it’s even more addictive), but that doesn’t mean that is a boring or bad game. And first came the release of the cinematic, New Dawn, and now a new champion named Gnar.
What I can get about his history, that you can see here, is that a village was suddenly attacked by a monster/evil. This monster/evil was defeated by the leader of the village who then became possessed by this monster/evil and was then trapped in ice for XXX years (or at least the most I can guess).
Now he’s free and ready to fight for the League of Legends...
For those interested in more, head to the reddit thread to see what new secrets they discover.
Here’s the trailer, everyone.
/p>As you should know by now, the last LoL patch has a complete redesign of the Summoner’s Rift map, with a ton on of new features, animation, and effects. And to complement that, rito release a cinematic to present the new map for everyone. It’s amazing, and if you’re a avid LoL player, you’ll love it.
HearthStone, a F2P game by Blizzard has now an expansion... adventure.. DLC... whatever. This new expansion is called Curse of Naxxramas, and even though it was announced a few months ago, it was finally released today by the price of $6.99 USD or 700 gold (ingame money).
This new adventure will bring a lot of new enemies, card, and even a Heroic Mode for hardcore player. Anyway, here’s the trailer.
Lately I’ve been playing a pretty cool game called Mark of the Ninja. It’s not a new game, it was released on October, 2012 for the PC, and it’s one of the most cool 2D platformers I’ve played (after Super Meatboy).
The mechanics on this game employ a lot of line of view points and a lot of sound-related actions. Meaning that, you’re a fuckin’ ninja, be quiet. Unlike Assassin’s Creed, that lately relies on killing everything in your path, in this game killing everything sometimes is the worst way to go or even boring, just don’t kill unless you have to.
Also, the ending, THE FUCKIN’ ENDING. Anyway, as always, for those like me who can’t afford, here’s a download link. But if you can, here’s the Steam link.
An old news, but awesome nonetheless. Two days ago, Doubleagent, a neutral Pandaren player of World of Warcraft hit top level, 90, without leaving the starting area.
This is something incredible and actually pretty awesome to do, and a huge time waster. He spent around 4164 hours playing to achieve that, which is 173.5 days, which is 5.7 months playing the game non-stop 24/7... is still incredible.
Anyway, here’s the official post in the forum and the official reddit thread.
I’m not too fond to use emulators, I prefer a lot play the game in the console, but sometimes there is no other choice, so after a quick search and tryouts, I found the one emulator that works 100% in Windows 7/8 100% and without any problem, VBA-M.
VBA-M (VisualBoyAdvance-M) is a very cool emulator that I found and the main reason I talk about it is because of his compatibility with the latest Windows OS (32 and 64 bits), and because you can speed up the game with a key.
Thanks to this, I ended three pokemon games in two days. Also, you can resize the window, which weirdly, is not that common in the emulator’s world.
E3 started yesterday, and I didn’t post a stream because I was late for all presentations, but finally I’m in time! And Nintendo is hosting a Stream on YouTube (which is WAY more stable than Twitch) and here it is!
Today began the E3 of 2014, and between all the amazing announcements and presentations, there is one that I was waiting for... and wasn’t disappointed: Mirror’s Edge... at least a preview of what’s coming.
From today to June 8, League of Legends will feature a new mode called Mirror Mode: One-for-all. This game played on the Howling Abyss, consist in all 10 players choosing the same champion.
This is beyond amazing, and unlike Ultra Rapid Fire, I actually have fun playing this mode. It’s not about strategy, it’s about luck and ability combined, and the result is a complete mess.
Here’s the math behind champion select:
For this iteration of One For All, champ select is determined by the combined nominations of both teams. A vote tracker shows the nominated champions - if one champ achieves a strict majority, they’re chosen. If not, we base the choice on a weighted random from all the nominated champs, so if four people vote for Amumu, three people pick Blitzcrank and the last three all pick different champs; there’s a 40% chance everyone plays Amumu, a 30% chance everyone plays Blitz and a 10% chance for each of the remaining champs!
I really recommend playing this over the classic Summoner’s Rift since it’s faster and gives the same amount of IP if you played a normal game.
First of all, this is not a fix. Second, this is a common error for those who play LoL with a language different from their current location. It started around December, IIRC, and so far there is no actual fix to there, nor workarounds. The only thing I can tell you to do is to change the language back.
Braum is the new LoL champion; he is support, and has a massive shield that uses to protect those behind him. He has amazing mobility and outstanding gameplay; not only powerful abilities but also fun to play.
Just watch the video, and let’s wait until is free to play to try it out.
I love stick fights; animators can do anything they want in them, and since there are not amazing details, it can be fast and everything is possible. Lately I saw the ending of an awesome one named Stick Figure Spotlight, that consists in 4 episodes:
If you didn’t know, Windows 8 comes without the old basic games like FreeCell, Minesweeper, Solitaire, Pinball, and more. You could download them via the Store, but it’s really annoying to download one by one, and you get to play them as tiles, instead of Windows, which - personally - I don’t enjoy. So, here you can download the following games:
